1 Kings 21:1-4
1Now it came about after these things that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard which was in 1Jezreel beside the palace of Ahab, the king of Samaria. 2And Ahab spoke to Naboth, saying, “2Give me your vineyard so that I may have it for a vegetable garden, because it is close beside my house, and I will give you a better vineyard in place of it; if 3you prefer, I will give you what 4it is worth in money.” 3But Naboth said to Ahab, “The Lord forbid me 5that I would give you the inheritance of my fathers!” 46So Ahab entered his house sullen and furious because of the 7answer that Naboth the Jezreelite had given to him, since he said, “I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers.” And he lay down on his bed and turned his face away, and ate no 8food.
